A new study,conducted by British company Mindlab International,has found that listening to music at work increases accuracy (精确) and speed,The Telegraph reported.
Perhaps,some parents disagree with this idea,saying,“Switch off the music and concentrate!” Well,if that’s the case with your parents,you might now be able to convince them that you have science on your side.
The company gave 26 participants(参与者) a series of different tasks for five days in a row,including spell checking,mathematical word problems,data entry,and abstract reasoning.The participants completed these tasks while listening to music or no music at all.
The results showed that while music was playing,88% of participants produced their most accurate test results and 81% completed their fastest work.David Lewis,chairman of Mindlab International,told The Telegraph,“Music is a very powerful management tool if you want to increase not only the efficiency of your workforce but also their emotional state...They are going to become more positive about the work.”
However,you may have a list of your favorite songs,but not all kinds of music match all homework.For maths or other subjects involving numbers or attention to detail,you should listen to classical music,the study found.In the study,pop music enabled participants to complete their tasks 58% faster than when listening to no music at all.If you are reviewing your English writing,pop music is the best choice,as it is the best kind for spell checking.It cut mistakes by 14%,compared to listening to no music.After finishing your homework,do you often take time to check your answers Maybe,some dance music is suitable for you.

Jason Allen,a video game designer in Pueblo,Colorado,spent about 80 hours working on his entry to the Colorado State Fair’s digital arts competition.Judges awarded him first place,which came with a $300 prize.
Allen’s victory took a turn when he revealed online that he’d created his prize-winning art using Midjourney,an artificial intelligence (AI) program that can turn text descriptions into images.He says he also made that clear to state fair officials when he dropped off his submission(提交) called Théátre D’péra Spatial.
Colorado’s 150-year-old state fair is held each summer in Pueblo,a town about 185 kilometers south of Denver.The fair’s submission guide lines do not directly mention AI-generated art,but they define(定义) digital arts as “artistic practice that uses digital technology as part of the creative or presentation process.”
The competition’s two judges say they were unaware that Allen had used AI to create his piece.But even if they had known,they still would have given him first place.They said they awarded the top prize based on the story Théátre D’péra Spatial tells,as well as the spirit it inspires.
Allen created Théátre D’péra Spatial by entering various words and phrased into Midjourney,which then produced more than 900 versions for him to choose from.He selected his three favorites,then continued adjusting them in Photoshop until he was satisfied.He boosted their resolution(分辨率) using a tool called Gigapixel and printed the works.He entered all three pieces into the competition,and one of them won.
Allen said he believes the criticism of his work originates from artists’ fear that technology will one day become so advanced that they’ll be out of jobs.
In the meantime,as state fair spokesperson Alga Robak says,it’s bringing out “a broader conversation about how we decide what art is,and how we judge it appropriately.”
8.What does the underlined word “that” refer to in paragraph 2
A.Taking a turn.
B.Revealing the truth online.
C.Turning text descriptions into images.
D.Applying an AI program to the creation.
9.Why did the two judges award Allen first place
A.He followed guide lines for AI-generated art.
B.They were unaware of the use of ad in his piece.
C.He is a pioneer of using digital technology in creation.
D.They are impressed with the ideas that his work presents.
10.What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A.How Allen created his works.
B.What AI technologies Allen used.
C.Why Allen chose to employ Midjourney.
D.Where the advantage of Allen’s works lay.
11.What can we learn about Allen’s victory according to the text
A.It costs artists their jobs.
B.It helps enhance AI technology.
C.It ensures fairness in arts competitions.
D.It generates a discussion on defining art.
Ⅴ.七选五
Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air.However,a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. 1
Many people say running in winter can be difficult.Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. 2 That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body.When you run in cold weather,your heart rate and the body’s dehydration(脱水) levels are lower than in warmer conditions. 3
This information comes from John Brewer,who is a professor of applied sport science at St.Mary’s.For this study,he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber”.The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. 4 Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners.
He says that the most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing.Wear gloves on your hands. 5 And especially wear more than one layer of clothing to keep sweat away from your skin.
A.Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather.
B.We have good reasons to run in winter.
C.Wear shoes that will keep you from falling.
D.Many feel nervous when running in the cold weather.
E.The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather.
F.In fact,running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance.
G.The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions.

9.was assumed 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。空处是一个由that引导的定语从句,空处缺少从句的谓语。根据主句谓语used to have可判断从句谓语应该也用一般过去时,从句引导词that 指代a Western lifestyle,作主语是第三人称单数形式,同时与assume是动宾关系,所以空处需用第三人称单数的被动语态形式。故填was assumed。
10.their 考查代词。空处修饰名词style,所以需用Chinese consumers的形容词性物主代词,故填their。分层跟踪检测(二)Grammar and usage & Integrated skills

One day,when I was going to check in at an airport,I noticed there was a big problem.The counter person was telling everyone that all the planes were having problems and they would not be able to fly! And it was suggested that a bus would be provided to take us to Seattle.Everyone was worried,as we only had an hour and a half to make the connecting flight,and the bus was not even at the airport yet.
Finally,the bus pulled up,and the driver said,“They just pulled me out of bed after an all-night shift (夜班),and they expect me to get you to Seattle in time to catch your flight.Good luck!”
Needless to say,everyone was in a really bad mood.I was loading my baggage into the bus and had slung my banjo (班卓琴) over my back when the bus driver said,“What Are you going to play that in my bus ” “Well,really did not plan on it,” I replied.“I was only kidding,” said the driver.But I started thinking about it,and I pulled out the banjo.A worried,angry woman said,“Well,what if I don’t like it ” “Then tell me and I’ll stop,” I replied.
We drove off,and the tension made the atmosphere inside the bus horrendous! Then I started plucking (弹奏) the old standard Blue Skies.In a few minutes,I noticed everyone was singing along.I started to sing,too,and before long,the whole bus burst into song.
One song led to another.Everyone laughed and sang,with food passed around the bus,and before long,the airport was in sight.The bus driver called,“We made it! We never would have done it without the help of our banjo player.” Shouts of approval rang through the bus.People exchanged addresses and invitations to visit,and a few exchanged hugs.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
We’re all familiar with songs getting stuck in our head while we’re awake,but it turns out that this can happen during sleep as well.A new study shows that earworms getting into our brains at night could cause problems in getting to sleep and staying asleep.
Neuroscientist Michael Scullin from Baylor University and his coworkers used surveys of 199 people,as well as a sleep lab test involving 50 volunteers,to measure the influence of listening to music before bedtime on sleep.
In the survey part of the study,those who regularly listened to music during the day were more likely to report lasting nighttime earworms,which then had a negative effect on sleep quality through the night.For the lab test,individuals were played instrumental or standard versions (版本) of Shake It Off by Taylor Swift,Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen,and Don’t Stop Believin’ by Journey.Tests were used to measure the following sleep quality.
Earworms were reported throughout the night by the people surveyed,with those taking longer to fall asleep,spending more time in the light stages of sleep,and waking up more times during the night.Surprisingly,the instrumental versions of the songs caused about twice as many earworms and more following sleep problems than the standard ones.
Past studies have connected late-night music listening with better sleep in those with insomnia,perhaps because it can relax the body.The researchers behind the new study suggest that actually it might be worse for our sleep—that even after the tunes stop,our brains continue to process them for several hours.
Scullin suggests avoiding listening to music right before bed to limit the chance of catching earworms.Doing some other cognitive(认知的) activity before sleeping,like making a list of jobs for the next day,might also help clear the mind,Scullin says.
1.Which description best explains earworms
A.Worms entering one’s ears.
B.Worms stuck in one’s brain.
C.Tunes repeating in one’s mind.
D.Problems caused by sleeplessness.
2.What do we know from the survey part of the study
A.Different music has the same effect on sleep at night.
B.Our brain stops processing music when we are asleep.
C.Daytime music listening has a negative effect on sleep.
D.Late-night music listening contributes to sleep at night.
3.What does the underlined word “insomnia” mean in paragraph 5
A.Lack of sleep.
B.Inability to sleep.
C.Cognitive disorder.
D.Bad sleeping habits.
4.How can people improve their sleep quality according to Michael Scullin
A.Doing nothing to clear the mind.
B.Doing exercise to relax the body.
C.Listening to music right before bed.
D.Working out a schedule for tomorrow.

(2022山东青岛重点中学高一下联考)
Though it is one of the faded memories of my life today,there are times when I remember his face clearly,especially his eyes.As he had yellow spots on his eyes,we called him Spotty.He would have been a stray(流浪) dog,until he came to me.
I was seven years old.My dad had just got a new job in Nasik.We had moved into a rented house.It was raining very heavily on the day we moved.
It was a cold dark night.We had our meal and went to sleep.Somehow in the midnight I heard some strange sounds outside the main door.I gathered courage and looked out through the window and I was really amused with what I saw outside.
There was a small puppy lying on an old doormat which my mother had put outside the door.It was wet and trembling.At first it was difficult to see the little one.It was the yellow spots on its eyes that made me realize its presence.
It was trying to get under the doormat to avoid the cold air outside and it had managed to get in as I could see only its head outside the doormat.Was it sick or injured
I felt pity for the poor soul.I went in and came out with an old towel.I went near the innocent one and held it in my hand and wiped the puppy till he had become dry.I took him into my room and made a bed for him with a woolen blanket and a small pillow.He seemed very healthy and comfortable in his new bed as he went to sleep immediately.
The next morning,everyone in the family came to know about the unusual guest.“Shall we keep him with us ” I questioned my mom.
Like any other parents would,my parents first totally refused my idea but my sister and I convinced them to keep Spotty.
Slowly Spotty got on with everyone and became one of the family members.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
One day Spotty returned from his daily walk with a broken leg.
Almost a year later,one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly.

One day Spotty returned from his daily walk with a broken leg.He came to my room and sat near me.It was then that I saw his hind leg was injured and was bleeding.I called out my mother and she quickly tied a bandage around his leg and gave him food to eat.I was very upset.But the next day,Spotty was up to his usual pranks though he limped a bit.After this incident my relation with Spotty became more intense.I really admired him a lot for his courage.
Almost a year later,one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly.We came out and saw that he was barking continuously heading somewhere.After some time,Spotty became quiet.I patted him on his back and came inside.The next day morning,my heart skipped a beat when I didn’t see Spotty.I searched for him in each and every corner but he was nowhere.And this time he had gone and would never come back.I cried and waited for him.We waited for one long week.But there were no signs of him.Then one day my dad got transferred to Mumbai.We shifted back to Mumbai.What would have happened to Spotty Would he have died These were the only questions in my mind,but they all remained unanswered forever.
